Days Go By

We do a dance I wait for you to fall out of step Your skeleton hands Clasp tightly around my neck Impeding my every breath I want you in my bed You have her in yours instead The holes in my arms have gone to my head And I'd stay with you babe But surely We'd wind up dead Where does the head go Not where it's told to Over and over Breaking the rules Open and closed Where does the head go Favorite places Broken head What can I tell you Not what I'm told to Over and over Breaking the rules My days go by Cranes swinging across the sky Constructing piece by piece Many walls to surround me Oh your secrets, secret life You went places they haven't gone They don't know just where you've been Nobody knows how dark or cold Where does the head go Not where it's told to Over and over Breaking the rules Open and closed Where does the head go Favorite places Broken head What can I tell you Not what I'm told to Over and over Breaking the rules
